Last chance to have your gift doubled

Dear Supporter,

Kertina was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2015 during a routine visit to her doctor. She had a family history of type 2 diabetes, so she was familiar with the disease. Still, she found her own diagnosis shocking—and tough to accept. But she hasn’t let it hold her back:

“I think getting past the denial and accepting that I have to live differently is the greatest challenge. I am working hard with my children to make sure the disease does not touch their lives and raising awareness so others can be proactive.”

People like Kertina are able to thrive despite their diabetes because of the amazing advances we’ve seen—and those are made possible by funding promising diabetes research.

This month only, our friends at the Amaranth Diabetes Foundation have committed to matching every gift we receive up to a campaign total of $100,000. Every dollar you donate will go directly to research for treatments and cures—so people like Kertina can continue to fight diabetes. Will you help us fund the next diabetes breakthrough?
